The Political Agent,

Sir,
With reference to your letter Ho.141/1/9, I have the honour
to inform you that 1 have received the petition referred to
therein, and also the counter petition from the Eaharnah referred
i
to in the last sentence of the letter.
1 attach a copy of each for your information, and I enclose
copies of my replies. 1 request you will kindly deliver my
reply to the first petition to Shaikh Isa or one of the other
signatories. 1 have handed to the representatives of the Baharnah
signatories of the second petition, my reply to that petition,
and also my reply to their own subsidiary petition.
1 trust these replies will remove all idea in the minds of
both parties that the policy of reform will not be pursued.
If the news of these replies is spread 'abroad on the 2yth
or 3u,aftor the "Barjora" arrives, and 1 defer my visit to
Bahrain until the 3lst or 1st 1 think ali suspicion that my visit
is in some way the result of these petitions will be removed.
In
